I love those fruity drinks that you can order at restaurants (Strawberry lemonade, etc). We all know those are filled full of empty calories. But I came up with an alternative that works for me:

I brew Fruity Herbal Teas (Celestial Seasonings has some great favors) and add unsweetened frozen fruits (berry blend) and for less than 15 calories I have that "fruity drink" without the horrible calories. Without the fruit its calorie free depending on the tea!

No its not super sweet, but it is a fun drink that is delish for the summer!

So far my fav. blend is the Mixed Berry Zinger tea and mixed berry fruits.

Any other low-or no cal beverages for summer? I am always looking for something fun and healthy!

    I recently blended a vanilla tea with an orange tea and added a tablespoon of light agave nectar to a half gallon of it. I call it my healthy orange cream soda!
